Very good side dish. I love balsamic vinegar, so anything with balsamic vinegar in it is okay by me! I added sesame seeds on top for garnish and served it with orange chicken. Thanks!

My DH really liked this combo. It's a nice change from everyday brocoli. Thanks for sharing this recipe.

I omitted the balsamic vinegar and just tossed my steamed broccoli with the soy and butter combo. I added a sprinkle of sesame seeds for garnish. This was a nice companion to Polynesian Kabobs (recipe #97316) and Solo Sweet Onion Rice (recipe #14764).
